Not even a little bit close. GWTW is as good as movies get. Wizard of Oz isn't even the best Oz movie.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
